Instant Confirmation

A fabulous romantic destination, featuring breathtaking views.

Perfectly perched on the 12th floor of the desirable Girasol Sur Condominium Complex. Snorkel the rocks just steps away from the complex where you will find beautiful exotic fish and graceful Bat Rays. Sip a cocktail on the Veranda as dolphins show off their moves and turtles come up to say hello.

Nestled between two white sandy beaches that feature breathtaking sunsets and soft white sand. Lively Old Town is only a 15 minute ride away where a delicious margarita awaits you or hang out at the onsite restaurant and snag 2 for 1 drinks every night from 6-7 PM.

Now onto the good stuff, your new humble abode. The condo features original Spanish tile throughout that adds to the Mexican character of the property and helps keep the space cool throughout the day. The kitchen features a brand new 3/4 size refrigerator, microwave, electric stove top, toaster oven and dine in kitchen table. Enjoy a hot shower or relaxing bubble bath and sleep the night away in the very comfortable Mexican King pillow top bed.

A recent addition is a brand new quiet air conditioner. The sunsets are the highlight of this special space so sit back and take it all in, welcome to our little slice of paradise!

Getting Around

If you are interested in renting a car, I use Mex Car Rentals. Ask for Poncho, tell him your renting from Polly in Mismaloya and he will take good care of you. There is free onsite parking at the condo. Cabs are reasonable and most of the drivers speak English. The bus also stops right in front of the complex. If you use google maps to navigate your destination will be Condominios Girasol Sur "Not the address."

We belong to the Laundry Club, so pack lightly and get those threads washed.

Regarding security, safety always comes first. Gate access to and from the beach are for Residents and Guests only. Gates will be locked during the evening.

TV features English speaking channels and cable so you'll never miss a game! Throw in your HDMI cable and stream from your device.

Why Polly Piette chose South Shore Hotel Area

We stumbled upon Girasol Sur several years ago and have been returning to this complex ever since. The staff, the location,the beaches, the views, and most of all authentic accommodation's are one of the best in Banderas Bay.

We enjoyed our week long stay in this lovely studio sized condo. Everything we needed to enjoy the beach; good restaurant and bar with a few nights of live music. The staff was friendly and accommodating, and the mini mark on sight carries a good variety of groceries and supplies. Overall a great place to stay!!!

This is one of our favorite places! It is so beautiful and serene. The room was very nice and the building and staff were excellent. The restaurant is very good. My favorite was the the snorkeling right on our own beach. It was so clear and we saw many varieties of marine life. On another day we took a short taxi to the beach at Mismaloya and engaged one of the small boats to take us out to the Arcos preserve. It was magical swimming with all of the fish. Then we cruised home and the boatman dropped us off right on our own beach. Very enjoyable day. We loved it.

What a lovely property and amazing view! The condo is equipped with everything you could need. I appreciated the beach kit - large mat, sun umbrella, snorkeling sets, beach towels.

The bathroom has plenty of hot water and the ac works well. The property staff were helpful and kind. And the new restaurant serves delicious food!

We took a variety of transportation (taxi, bus, uber), and all worked well. Uber to town runs about 110 pesos, and is also nice because you don't have to keep cash for that.

We're looking forward to coming back and staying in Polly's condo again!

Our week at the "Slice of Paradise" condo was incredible. The condo was beautifully decorated, fully equipped and very clean. The view from the 12th floor balcony was breathtaking. Our first morning we saw a mother humpback whale with her baby swim by the condo. Amazing! We also saw giant rays go by and other whales. Polly was wonderful to rent from and left great information. Thank you so much, Polly, for sharing your tropical home. We highly recommend this condo.
